You Need An Invite Code(41HH6UE) Before You Sign up as an Uber Driver

If You Were Planning On Driving For Uber

(And you should check them out) you can sign up through my referral link here, (Invite Code automatically applies), and you will still get what ever cash bonus that is being offered in your city.

Sign up bonus are connected to your city, not the referral code you use. Since the bonus is double-sided, I also will get a bonus for referring you.

While some people think driving for Uber isn’t worth it, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try out driving for yourself. Some people actually enjoy it. And not all but some markets are still really good money. On top of that, most cities, offer a bonus that’s worth it.

Add the sign-up bonus in with the fares you will earn each trip; You could make a minimum $1,500 dollars your first 40 hours of driving for Uber (But probably more if you work the right hours). 40 hours is how long it will approximately take you to complete the bonus requirements.

Ready to make a few bucks this weekend? Get signed up to drive in just a few minutes.

Of course every city has a different bonus amounts and trip requirements. But it’s usually well worth it to at least try them out. After that, if you don’t find them appealing, then take the well-earned money and run!

While driving isn’t for everybody, it does seem like Christmas always comes up a little too fast every year, and I know we could all use the extra cash while the referral bonuses last.

Everybody’s experience driving for Uber is different. You never know how yours will be until you try them out for yourself.

What Is Uber’s Referral Code For?

Uber’s greatest method of growth has been from word-of-mouth marketing. This goes the same for drivers and passengers a-like.

Every first time rider that has gotten into my car has told me they are trying Uber because of a friend or family member that recommended the service.

Because growth is important in any business, Uber incentivizes drivers and passengers by offering bonuses, ride credits, and discounts, for referring other people to use Uber.

Why You Should Use A Referral Code

If you have ever been to Uber’s website looking for a discount code to ride or a sign-up bonus to drive, you might realize that you can’t find any information.

The reason why is because Uber doesn’t offer anything to people that go directly to them. This does kinda make sense if you think about it. If you go directly to someone’s website, you might already be planning on signing up.

You wouldn’t want to give someone an incentive to buy when you already know they are about to sign up without the incentive, right?

You would be cutting into your profit for no reason.

That’s why you always want to find an invite code before sign up.

So, How Exactly Do Referrals Work?

Think about your phone service for a second. There’s Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc… Let’s say you have tried them all and Verizon is the best in your experience. So now, when your friends are thinking about switching phone providers you will always recommend Verizon to them.

This is the same Idea with Uber, only you get a bonus for recommending drivers to sign up with Uber.

Uber knows who refers who because every driver and rider have a unique referral code that tells Uber who the referee was.

Requirements To Earn Uber’s Driver Sign-Up Bonus

There are only a few requirements to earn a bonus and none are very difficult.

You must be a new driver when signing up for Uber. If you have experience with other rideshare companies like Lyft that is OK.

You must sign up using a referral code(Link applies invite code automatically).

You must complete a certain amount of trips. This can vary from 10 trips to 100 trips.

Uber Offers double-sided Referral bonuses

The cool thing with Uber is both the referee and referral can earn a bonus once the referral completes the requirements.

For example, In San Francisco when you use my link and complete the required trips. You will receive a $700 bonus, but I will receive a $700 bonus as well for referring you.

Of course, this really depends on the city you drive in. Some bonuses the referee will get more than the referral.

Like I said earlier though, it doesn’t matter who’s code you use because all codes are created equal. So if you see one person promoting a referral code with a $500 bonus and another person promoting a $300 bonus.

You could use either code and the amount you receive wouldn’t change since it’s based on your city, not the code.

Once you sign up to drive, Uber will give you your own personal referral code to invite other drivers so you can earn more with the double-sided bonus.

What Bonus Does Your City Offer

Uber is pretty secretive about what bonus each city offers. They don’t post a public list for everyone to see. So you actually may not know until you sign up.

But, if you really want to know beforehand, you should send Uber a message with the city you are in to see what the current referral bonus is.

When Will You Get Paid Your Referral Bonus?

If you are the referee, you must first wait for your referral to finish signing up and complete the trip requirements for their city.

Once the requirements have been completed, you should give it up to 48 hours for your bonus to reflect in your current pay statement. Any longer and I would send Uber a message asking what’s up.

Depending on which day of the week the requirements are completed, it should take 1-2 weeks to receive your referral bonus.

After you finished the requirements to get the bonus, if you want to stop driving, no one is stopping you.

Need To Retroactively Apply An Uber Referral Code?

Sometimes you forget to put an invite code. Other times, you don’t realize you could’ve gotten a bonus until after you already signed up without a code.
